    I shared this video with my cousin numerous times. Often telling him how much the song reminded me of him. He unfortunately passed away a few months ago. He'll always be true blue.

    The Impossible over the bench in new york will always be dylan's signature moment to me. so perfect, so timeless, so beautiful.

    This video has been taken off so many times from CZcams. I know its very personal and that's why I have watched it literally more than 500 at least for the past year. The people love Dylan not because of his skating, not because of his style, not because he was a handsome guy, it's because he was D Y L A N - an amazing human being who lived his life to the fullest, he was doing what he loved and he was not a sold out. He had principles and he was down to earth and a really cool guy and who was his friend was a blessing. Rest In Peace Dylan! I'm actually crying writing this. It's really sad, but I will keep you in my heart and many others.

      The best we can do is to be inspired by his life to be better to us and to others. It hurts so bad to see people like him passing away. Thanks for your comment. Rest in heaven 🖤

    Wow I didn’t know this existed.
    We are all gonna be dead some day but Conor won’t be playing our funeral. Love to Dylan - love to Conor. One of the best skateboarders of all time and one of the best songwriters of all time.

      I don't know if it was intentional, but I liked that phrasing as tattooing is done by essentially cutting deep enough into the skin so that the ink doesn't fade away, and the inside of your hands is a notoriously painful spot to get tattooed.

    • @brandogtv9650
      @brandogtv9650 Před 3 lety +7

      A 'cut' is a slang term for a song or track - the word comes from the groove in the record. It is 'deep' because it typically might appear deep within the album, instead of at the beginning - though of course this can vary) Almost none of the songs you hear on conventional radio are deep cuts.

    I’m so sad it was just not possible for me to have conor play at my best friends funeral last month. She was semi famous and had two famous ppl there but she was the magical one that could have did that for me, not the other way around. Conor is our favorite. I went and seen him in Kalamazoo a week after she passed away. I feel like the ppl around me probably thought I was bawling my eyes out because I was seeing conor but I was just in pain. It was pretty much the first tears I was even able to cry.
    Rip to Dylan also, I’ve never heard of him but my phone knows death and conor are big in my life atm, so naturally this would show up.
